Today, Seagate announced that it has been named a Visionary in Gartner’s 2015 Magic Quadrant for Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), a first-of-its kind report for this market, published April 21, 2015.
Seagate’s disaster recovery, DR, service — the Seagate EVault Cloud Resiliency Service — is highly customizable and available as a self-managed or provider-managed service. It supports customer recovery of virtual machines, bare-metal image restores and production data, all from inside a man
aged cloud. Seagate’s recovery testing and recovery operations are largely provider-managed, and varying service-level agreement tiers are guaranteed.
Gartner’s validation of the DRaaS market is a clear indicator that more types of businesses can benefit from investing in DR preparedness.
To prove this point consider the case of Kleinfeld Bridal, a NY-area bridal boutique, made popular by the ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ program. Its unusual story, which includes 50 brides, a storm named Sandy and – thanks to Seagate’s EVault solution – many happy endings demonstrates how DRaaS positively impacts businesses and its customers.
Seagate continues to enhance its vertically integrated software and hardware solutions while strengthening its strategic partnerships, ensuring its disaster recovery solutions are prepared to meet the emerging needs of partners and customers in managing data recovery.
